1.42E-6 is what percent of 0.00056602 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 0.00056602 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 0.00056602, so we can write it down as 100%=0.00056602.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.42E-6 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.42E-6.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=0.00056602
2) x%=1.42E-6
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=0.00056602/1.42E-6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.42E-6 is what percent of 0.00056602

100%/x%=0.00056602/1.42E-6
(100/x)*x=(0.00056602/1.42E-6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=398.60563380282*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (398.60563380282) to get x
100/398.60563380282=x
0.25087452740186=x
x=0.25087452740186

now we have:
1.42E-6 is 0.25087452740186% of 0.00056602
